To GBB: A while ago I read that oxytocin for tinnitus was originally being considered among Medical Researchers in Brazil.

To twa: I was a Property Insurance Adjuster; I would say that moving water has far less of a chance of freezing than does stationary water.

Is it really possible to maintain even a modicum of emotional healthiness with this condition? I can no longer acquire this frame of mind.

To twa: How about the 6th heaviest snowfall in Chicago Weather History? Tinnitus with this isolation is a punishment worthy of Kim Jong-un.

To twa: We have a monster snowstorm in Chicago. Being confined indoors with tinnitus is cruel and unusual punishment.

To twa: Most definitely it seems that barometric and other weather changes significantly affect tinnitus, migraines and arthritis.

To twa: I believe that barometric and other weather changes can significantly affect both tinnitus and migraines.

To musicblue: I understand completely. In 7 years I only habituated partially. OMG how this condition has undermined me psychologically.

To twa: I never had any mental health issues serious enough to require that I see a psychiatrist before tinnitus.

To kingsfan: I have worn myself out with desperate, hastily developed bargaining and rationalizing when my tinnitus fluctuates.

To LukeYoung: I know precisely how you feel. Tomorrow will be my 7 year anniversary.I must resist looking back on how much it ruined.

To Ricardo1991: His comment about how when a drug is developed it is typically released ASAP (for the revenues) is particularly germane.

To bethadr: I was on Zoloft, and afte only r 36 hours I had terrifying paranoia, hyperventilation, and near-hallucinations.

To Gabriel5050: I have been on this site since 02/19 and I had this same observation. I have my own private list of such former posters.

Hi can you describe the illness that caused your tinnitus? Have you confirmed it's the cause?

I have had tis condition for just over five years, and this Forum has been wonderfully supportive.
